ALL VOLUNTEERS

By submitting this online application to Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue, I understand that it is my decision to foster any particular dog. I will not hold Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue, or any member thereof, responsible for any damage, injury, or harm caused, directly or indirectly, by any dog I may decide to foster.

I will not sell or give away any dog in my care to a research facility, pet shop, dog broker or puppy mill, or to any other person or business that may cause harm either mental or physical to any dog.

In the event that I resign, whether it be voluntarily or by request, I agree to immediately return any foster dog in my care at that time to Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue. Additionally, all records pertaining to foster dogs past and present shall be returned to Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue within 10 days of said resignation. I further agree that upon termination, all rescue records become the property of Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue.

In public dealings, I will remember that I am a representative of Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue, and shall make every effort to promote the mission of Great Lakes Border Collie Rescue. This includes not only answering questions accurately and politely, but also referring questions to more knowledgeable resources whenever necessary.

I have completed this application to the best of my ability and knowledge. I have made no misstatements or misrepresentations. I understand that discovery of such can result in the termination of my volunteer duties.

  

Thank you for taking the time to complete this questionnaire. If a rescuer does not contact you within one week of your submitting this application, please email our volunteer coordinator.
